Real Madrid vs Girona Prediction & Betting tips
Eight teams still fight for the title in the Spanish Copa del Rey. However, one of the co-favorites had to cancel the sails already in the second round. The speech is of course from Atletico Madrid. The team of Diego Simeone lost neither the one-way nor the second leg against the Girona Fútbol Club, but due to the more shot away goals of the blatant outsider, this surprise came about. The previous decade of the Spanish La Liga is now aiming for the next sensation in the quarter-finals. Once again Girona gets to do with a favorite from the capital, Real Madrid.
The Madrilenians have recently recovered to some extent and in the league at least two victories in a row booked. Of the absolute top constitution, the Royal are still far away, which proves, among other things, the 0-1 defeat in the second round match against Leganes. Nevertheless, the Champions League winner of the past three years enjoys a huge standing with the bookmakers, so on Thursday at Real Madrid against Girona, the odds turn out clearly in the direction of the Galactic. Perhaps that is precisely why the value is more likely to be found on the part of the guests, because after all, they were never in the midst of 24 competitive matches in this season at half-time.
Real Madrid:
Although Real Madrid’s form has moved up slightly in the past few weeks and Coach Solari’s team has won three out of the last four competitive matches, the Royal ones are far from safe from further collapse. The structure of the Champions League dominator of the past three years is extremely unstable and also secondary battlefields around dissatisfied professionals like Isco or Gareth Bale threaten to escalate at any time. After all, the Madrilenians reported in La Liga by two successes at Betis Sevilla (2-1) and at home against Sevilla FC (2: 0) back, so the capital club now greets again from third place and “only” five points behind Atletico Madrid in second place. However, since the chances of winning the title in the Spanish Championship have been reduced to a minimum, only the Copa del Rey remains to raise a national trophy. There it gets Real Madrid in the quarterfinals with Girona to do. The prognosis of many so-called experts falls in favor of the hosts in this match, although the guests may not be underestimated at the latest after the mentioned progress against Atletico Madrid.
If Real Madrid‘s odds against a home win against Girona are too low, then, statistically, it should not make the mistake of assuming a high or premature success. Looking at the isolated table after the first 45 minutes, Real Madrid is only in seventh place. The goal difference is even negative with 11 goals scored and 13 goals scored, and only in eight cases did Sergio Ramos and Co. start the second round with a lead. More than a single goal in the first half, the Madrid were only able to mark the 2: 2 in Villarreal for the start of the year 2019. Because there is a lot to stake in the quarter-final first leg and the Solari team will not have to make a decision in the first of a total of four halves, it’s safe to say that the hosts face problems with a decent defense , In the game Real Madrid – Girona, therefore, a tip to a draw at halftime is definitely worth considering, especially since it also stood in the league game at the cabin 1: 1, before the Royal put on a Schippe after the break and 4: 1 the Leave place as a winner. Keylor Navas, Gareth Bale, Marco Asensio and Jesus Vallejo will miss due to injury. Kroos, Llorente and Mariano Diaz, however, have returned to team training and could slip earlier than expected in the squad. Changes against the 2-0 victory against Sevilla are likely, especially since on Sunday the important away game in La Liga at Espanyol Barcelona is on the program.
Girona :
Since last season, the Girona Fútbol Club belongs to the inventory of the highest Spanish league. Right in the premiere year, the Red-Whites were able to convince as newcomers and finish in a respectable tenth place. In the current season, it also looks pretty neat after 20 match days. Twenty-four points accumulated are currently enough to reach position 12, although the lead over the first relegation zone is only a meager four points. In the league Girona 2019 still waiting for the first three. In Levante and at home to Alaves the team of coach Eusebio had to be satisfied with one point. At Betis Sevilla it hailed at the weekend an avoidable 2: 3 bankruptcy.
The provisional climax experienced the Catalans in the Copa del Rey, as they were able to point Atletico Madrid in the second round sensational in the barriers. Two draws at home (1: 1) and in the Spanish capital (3: 3) were enough to fix the progress. In both cases, by the way, there was already a draw at halftime (1: 1 each). In general, the red and white are one of the best teams when it comes to starting a game. In none of the 24 previous competitive games was Girona to break behind. Nine times, the Rangzwölfte led, in 15 cases would be gone after 45 minutes of betting on X. In that sense, it is actually the logical consequence between Real Madrid and Girona, due to the lucrative quotas, to steer the prognosis in that direction as well. They drew at half-time in four out of five games against Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. Only the La Liga first leg against the Royal was lost in the aftermath. Although the defensive – by numbers – far from the cream of the cream of the Spanish House of Lords counts, the Catalans succeed against top clubs again and again, to stand stable and set isolated pinpricks forward. Why not on Thursday in the Copa del Rey? Johan Mojica, Aday and Carles Planas are not available for injury. Top scorer Stuani, who had to pass at the weekend, should however return to the team and provide the necessary relief.
